Orange Fruit Snacks

A note on this recipe: they’re not exactly like store-bought fruit snacks. They have a bit more of a “jello” texture, but aren’t quite as jiggly. However, all 5 of my kids loved them, and I’d rather they eat these than that other junk! The possibilities are endless with this…use any type of juice!

Recipe: Orange Fruit Snacks (makes about 4-5 servings)

2 cup orange juice (fresh squeezed is always best, but if you can’t do that, at least plain ol’ OJ with nothing added is great!)

8 TBSP gelatin–I use this awesome stuff:
In a saucepan, heat the OJ to almost boiling. Turn off heat, and slowlywhisk in the gelatin, making sure not to allow clumps to form. Once the gelatin is dissolved, pour into an 8×8 pan and place in refrigerator to harden. Cut into squares and enjoy!
